[quote] I doubt it. Vienna is nice, but some people there exaggerate its walkability and downplay the typical commuting times.

The Town of Vienna (22180) is very walkable--all of it. If you have a Vienna address but live outside the town--in 22181 or 22182--it's not as walkable.

I don't see anyone on here saying that Vienna doesn't have long commuting times. In this case, the OP works in Oakton, so a commute from Vienna would not be a problem.

It's [b]utter nonsense [/b]to claim that all of the Town of Vienna is "walkable," [b]as that term is generally understood.[/b] The concentration of businesses along two long, parallel streets limits its walkability for many residents. [/quote]
As understood by whom? You? And I suppose you work for Webster's?

What are the walk scores for a house a block off of Maple?  1/2 mile? 2 miles? [/quote]

Many homes in the Town of Vienna have Walk Scores in the 10s and 20s.  [/quote]

Out of curiosity, I just checked our walk score.  We live in Vienna and got an 81.  We are close to many shops and we walk a lot more when the weather is nice.[/quote]

I also live in the town of Vienna and love it here because we can walk to the farmers market, community center, library and we bike on the trail. Our walk score is 57. The only issue is that new construction is expensive. [/quote]
